Has this been the most biased commentary you've ever heard?  Cameron Ling wants to boof every one of the Tiger players up the [censored].  

Mate, when you have a team playing as bad as us, what do you expect? Honestly, if I was in the Box I would be tearing our pi$$ weak players a new one. Pea hearts the lot of them.

 

At least the weekend is free now.

    I’ve been critical of Goodwin so far this year, but he made some positive moves today imo, but the skills have been possibly the worst I have seen from a Melbourne side for a decade, and that’s saying something. So many fumbles and missed handballs. Can’t blamed Goody for that [censored].

    What were the positive moves ? Any simpleton could coach to stop the bleeding which didn't hold up in the end anyway. Forward line was no existent & ball movement was just bomb away. I think he has a [censored] load to answer for tonight & the other 5 weeks

    It's like that for all our games. AFL sanctioned of course.

    Totally agree. 

    Does the afl want the cash for the fake tanking fine? Why is there so much bias against us

    So he had nothing to do with the high press being put back in place at the start of the last? Hes not in charge of the midfield setup coach? The players effort lacks when the games gone. The jogging after they waltz through our setup hurts from certain players, it wouldnt make any difference to that play, but they could effect another contest. It would be hard giving opponents such a headstart every time.


    Good. Gawn.  Melksham  Brayshaw. Hore Salem 

    passmark.  Frost  Lockhart  Viney Lewis Fritsch  Jones Hibberd Harmes Stretch 

    Poor.  Garlett.  Oliver. Hunt  Anb  TSmith 

    very poor. Petracca  Weideman. Tmcd.  

    Heads down in the room but I dont think they give a stuff.

    FCS ignore umpires, ignore commentators. We have so many issues with our list and personnel.  Our list is putrid, it is not a list capable of outside run and retaining the ball by foot. Recruiting has been putrid.  So many VFL standard players.

    Frustrating to watch full time professional footballers play like suburban amateurs. They are trying but the skills are deplorable and they work together like a group of tradies that get to train once a week together, if they have the time. 

    There are no systems down back, up forward and now our midfield group doesn’t seem to have any cohesion. 

     

    Question recruitment.  Wow last year Jason Taylor was the MAN. I argued otherwise and get shot down.  Too many plodders. Dumb players. We need soldiers that will run til their guts ache. 

    We need skilled footballers.  I could cut 25 blokes tomorrow.

    For me, our forward movement was consistently butchered by fumbling and missed handballs. You say the forward line was non existent but the ball barely even made it there due to handling errors. Not sure what the inside 50 count was, but they had pretty much doubled us last time I saw it.

    I’m not really sticking up for Goody, as I’ve been very critical of him, but there’s nothing he can do about those handling errors. It was amateur hour out there.

    Hogan for a fat slow full back 

    Great trading 

    Just great...

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
